Hubris Comics was a pre-war company which had been producing printed entertainment since 2021^[1]. It was a branch of Hubris Publishing and headquartered in Washington, DC^[1].

About

The most notable product of the company is its Grognak the Barbarian series. Several terminal entries in the company headquarters detail its various other comic book series as well as future projects, one of them even involving Vault Boy.

The company was, due to heavy sponsorship of the pre-war U.S. military, considered heavily patriotic, illustrated particularly by their publishing of the Tales from the Front series.
